Weight: 50g (1.75 oz) (loose leaf)
Type: Raw Pu-erh
Production area: Menghai, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan
This aged pu-erh, which is over 30-years-old, is one of the highest-grade traditional Hong Kong-stored raw pu-erhs available. When brewed, it produces a bright burnt orange hue and has a remarkably clean and smooth taste, with a rich mouth-feel. The tea also has a distinctive Chinese herb scent which can offer a calming body feel.
According to Master Vesper Chan, this type of aged pu-erh is becoming increasingly rare due to the rising cost of high-quality raw materials, resulting in a decline in production. The supply of these aged teas that he has collected in his warehouse is quickly diminishing owing to the growing demand from pu-erh enthusiasts.

Worth the price totally. Quite a special tea that is incredibly clean for something with such storage and age.
Aged Hong Kong-stored teas are diminishing in supply quickly as few tea vendors would go through the trouble to age teas in this manner anymore. Yes, this tea is clean and well-aged. Thank you for taking the time to submit the review.
Sublime in the best way with a subtle complexity and depth that is unique among the other teas I've tried. A special treat, and I am glad to be able to experience it.
Wow! That is high praise! Thank you. Just like its name, it is a timeless treasure.
